Lucha finds the fortune teller again, hoping for more insight into what the future holds. She draws a tarot card revealing The Lovers. The card warns her that great loss is ahead, but so is great love. Left alone, Lucha considers the crossroads she finds herself at, and wonders what life has in store for her.
